ORDER

' Through this petition filed under section 561-A, Cr.P.C. The petitioner has called in question the proceedings under section 182, P.P.C. Pending before the learned Area Magistrate of Police Station Jaura KaIan, District Khushab.

2. In support of this petition it has been argued by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the impugned proceedings under section 182, P.P.C. Against the petitioner had not been initiated by the Police Officer before whom the petitioner had submitted an application containing her allegations or by an officer superior to such an officer. It has also been argued that no notice was issued to the petitioner before initiation of proceedings against her under section 182, P.P.C.

4. It is settled law that whenever an objection to jurisdiction is taken by a litigant such an objection should ordinarily be taken before the concerned forum in the first instance before taking such a jurisdictional objection before this Court. In this view of the matter the learned counsel for the petitioner wishes to withdraw this petition at this stage so as to advise the petitioner to take her jurisdictional objections before the learned Area Magistrate of Police Station Jaura Kalan, District Khushab in the first instance before approaching this Court in that regard. It is expected that if some jurisdictional objections are taken by the petitioner before the learned Area Magistrate then he shall take a decision on the same one way or the other before proceeding further against the petitioner. This petition is disposed of as having been withdrawn with the observations made above.
